Abstract (sommario):
This thesis examines the relationship between the practice of architectural design and the media through which it is represented. It makes a consistent critical appraisal of the philosophical presumptions under which architectural theory is made, in particular, the relationship between theories of expression and representation. The thesis presents seven distinct projects by the author which developmentally explore the degree to which architecture is able to represent the sublime - in particular through the concept of horror. In this instance horror emerges as a category of excess that supervenes the uses of the term in the genres of film and literary studies. Within the thesis horror describes an (impossible) objective for representation The thesis argues that the environment within which these philosophical questions of 'effect' may most resonantly be explored is, ultimately, digital media. The author draws on contemporary commentary by Jacques Derrida and Georges Bataille, in particular Derrida's discussion of the Parergon and contemporary discussion of l'informe, the informal to support these arguments. It is within the apparently 'real' environments of virtual reality that the presentation of the mise-en-scene of horror may be explored. Immersive digital environments, it is argued, provide an appropriate level of freedom and direction for the exploration of the spatial experience of the abyss. The thesis concludes by presenting observations on the antinomy of aspirations that any materialist theory of architectural practice must attend to when working within digital media.

Abstract (sommario):
To evaluate specific architectural theories, an analytic methodology was used. The specific architectural theories evaluated all have in common the fact that their formative models can explain how their original ideas manifest in the practice of architectural works. Although these architectural theories researched are thousands or in some cases hundreds of years apart, a way to compare and contrast them was to use philosophies of art common to all. This contemporary approach to analysis was done with the use of ?analytic philosophy? for its effectiveness to clarify concepts. Central aspects of architectural theories will be analyzed in detail through the lenses of four contemporary theories of the philosophy of art. They are: formalism (including neo-formalism and theories that emphasize the connection between form and function), expression theories, representation theories (including neo-representational and mimetic accounts), and theories based on aesthetic experience. Looking at architecture from the viewpoint of analytic philosophy of art provides new insights into the nature of architecture and illuminates the field in significant ways. A recommendation for further study is enclosed.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
The extant Manasara is one of the authoritative treatises of vastusastra, traditional Indian architectural theory. The dissertation addresses the question of the nature of vastusastra, traditional architectural theory, as enunciated in the Manasara, and the relationship of theory to traditional practice. Vastusastra claims itself to be a priori with respect to practice. Two aspects of theory, theology and nomology, constitute the ontological and epistemological foundation and structure for this claim. From this sastraic perspective, practice is understood as mere application of rules. However, a closer hermeneutical reading of the text reveals the dialectical nature of theory itself, in both its theological and nomological aspects. This dialectic obtains in the relationship between theory and practice as a certain reciprocity between them, and in the parallelism between making the temple (the paradigmatic architectural object) and writing the treatise. Thus, a more precise understanding of the nature of traditional theory and its relationship to traditional practice is arrived at through this exercise. Such a calibrated understanding of vastusastra is indispensable in addressing the issue of the proper role that it may play in contemporary Indian architectural practice which is constituted in the modern scientific and technological mode.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
The following thesis is a 38,400 word document of a part-time PhD by project undertaken at the painting department of The Royal College of Art between October 2002 and September 2008. The purpose of this research has been to reflect on how an expansive interpretation of the architectural model operates as a mode of fragmentary thought for dwelling. I extend critical / theoretical approaches to the use of the model within my art practice, and its equivalent, 'the essay form,' in the written component of the thesis. I begin by deflning the use of the model within a speciflc work I made early in the project, and also discuss the model's ability to operate between more rigidly deflned disciplines of knowledge. I use Benjamin's notion of immanent critique to reflect on the poeticised potential of the model form to unfold information, by probing the rapport between materials and motifs, groupings and spacings and the made and the found. I also show how the process of thought through the material development of the work, informed an equivalent fragmentary approach to writing. In the four main chapters, I attend to a critical pairing four Bruegel paintings and four particular buildings to understand how both painting and building can be revealed as a thought model for dwelling. The chapters in the following order read Bruegel's Fall of Icarus in relation to Casa Malaparte, Procession to Calvary with Melnikov's Cylindical House Studio, The Tower of Babel with Kiesler's unbuilt notion of The Endless House, and flnally the two dwellings initiated by Wittgenstein with Hunters in the Snow. I conclude by returning briefly to a recent piece of my own work to consider how the model of thought for dwelling has developed within my current practice.

Abstract (sommario):
PART I I believe we are products of the age in which we live. Contemporary thinking shapes our historical present and reinterprets our historical past. This world is shaped by many keyhole views. The cornerstones of knowledge are built on a foundation of theory and objective reality. However, the fundamental underpinning of knowledge and theory lies in our perception of reality itself. The old cliche, “you don’t know what you have until you lose it,” is a perspective from which we can evaluate that which preceded as well as the threshold of new thought. A construction of reality is fundamental, yet particular to the temporal context. I propose to explore these issues and their relationship to judgement and decision making processes in design. The approach will be essentially pluralistic. PART II The uncertainty of the historical present is coupled with a hope for the future. For many architects the future holds their vision and inspiration. The future is, after all, the horizon we travel toward. Man is now expanding this horizon to space and other planets with alternative environments. Part II will explore architecture as atmosphere, landscape and dwellings through a collection of paintings free of the constraints of existing technology and theory. Architecture must first exist in the mind and heart before it can come into being.

Daniel, Sheri. "A layered conceptual model of factors critical to the architectural design laboratory". Virtual Press, 1988. http://liblink.bsu.edu/uhtbin/catkey/543772.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
In the pluralistic community of architectural education, the pedagogical paradigm has traditionally viewed the design laboratory as the integrating environment, where the student transforms the discrete parameters of architecture into an architectural form. With curriculum structure defining the parameters to which a student is exposed, the tendency is to direct the student through an additive and linear progression. The problem exists to develop a conceptual model that unifies the discrete fragments into a connected educational experience, insuring within the design laboratory the necessary balance between intellectual, professional and self-actualization concerns. The ultimate goal of the conceptual model, is to capture the essence of communication, that is the transfer of meaning, in the unique condition of the architectural design laboratory. The proposed method of inquiry for developing the model is of an interdisciplinary, comparative analytic process, to assess the full scope of factors pertinent to the design lab at any one moment in time.

Abstract (sommario):
This thesis investigates the concept of the symbolic form of architecture. It first focuses on the philosophical foundations for this concept in the works of Ernst Cassirer, Immanuel Kant, Conrad Fiedler, and Theodor Adorno. Then, the development of the modern perception of form in architectural theoreticians, where "modern" architectural theory evolved from an analogical state into a symbolic state, is examined: Karl Bötticherâ s concept of a Junktur and his attempt to transcend the presumed dichotomy in architecture between ornamentation and form is discussed; Gottfried Semper's concept of style and Alois Riegl's concept of motif are presented as reactions against what they saw as the mechanistic reliance on structure as definitive of form in architecture; Louis Sullivan's ornamentation is discussed as an attempt to integrate structure and ornamentation into a morphological whole; Otto Wagner's attempt to purge architecture from analogical responses through a strictly constructional basis for ornamentation is presented; and Adolf Loos' dismissal of decorative ornamentation, since it is an impediment towards true aesthetic judgment, is examined. Finally, a critical review of the symbolist movement in architecture, art, and literature is presented as a movement diametric to the symbolic development in architecture, since it glorified the analogical, and frequently the mimetic. The origins for how the symbolist movement became a denial of clarity center on Emanuel Swedenborg's concept of symbols, and how it was misinterpreted by the symbolists.

Vogel, Markus. "Downtown response : 21 ways to look at the architectural context : a reference framework for architectural design shown at downtown Indianapolis". Virtual Press, 1997. http://liblink.bsu.edu/uhtbin/catkey/1041806.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
This proposal is a catalogue of considerable contextual issues that inform the architect about values, environmental qualities, and principles, found within existing building structures of an American downtown. It is the intention of this collection to help the architect considering a broader range of ideas in a new single building to be designed, with the intent of improving foremost the public quality of a future building in the downtown.The main architectural questions embrace the definition of the contextual influences, dimensional and non-dimensional, and the clarification what type of influences remain under the control of the architect.It is my overall premise that buildings in downtown are indeed of "higher quality" when they reflect the surrounding rules, i.e., when the architects, clients and any other powerful participants of the building enterprise know about the additional ideas that have been established around the proposed site. The downtown is often the oldest part of a city where first housing, first trade, growth, and the idea of neighborhood had its roots, where it all began. I specify downtown still as the traditional center of a community, a center, not defined so much geographically or architecturally as it is socially.How can a future best building become a piece of the existing downtown environment as an ideal. Is there such an ideal answer? Or is the downtown itself a conglomerate of random individual and uncompromising Inventions?What is the basic language, the common traits that all buildings in downtown shareMarkus Vogel, May 1997•What parts of a building are of importance in becoming a part of downtown and what reasons can we identify for attaching importance to those parts?What generates form, use and expression in downtown buildings which we consider as being a successful part of the place.Out of these questions, a catalog of influences will be presented, a reference framework of 21 issues, notions, and contextual influences, divided into dimensional and non-dimensional influences. Each of the influences analyses a single aspect out of the pool of qualities of downtown buildings. The consideration of non-dimensional contextual influences without any obvious visual dimensions such as contextual symbolism, questions of aesthetics, and behavioral aspects is of special importance. In defining the references the following set of questions serve as a guideline:A) Why are the notions important and where are they coming from?B) How can we look at them in downtown Indianapolis?C) What are the related suggestions and implications for a design study?The research includes visual, graphical and oral analysis whereby downtown Indianapolis serves as an example and as a resource city. The target groups includes senior students of architecture, architects and the community, or any other public client involved in design decisions or design reviews which supervise new developments in downtown.It is the position of this paper that only a consideration of all contextual influences together in one building may create what utopists could consider an ideal building. Aware of this heavily difficult ideal, an overview on those constraints that are not sufficiently under the control of the architect will be given in order to clarify the dualism between the ideal outcome and realistic possibilities. This proposal is therefore the creation of a methodology which defines questions and issues rather than providing the answers, describing final design implications.In conclusion, I assume that the belief and the application of such a contextual framework is characteristic of those people interested in particular and individualistic design responses rather than those individuals preferring universal and broad rules honoring all kinds of manifestoes that can be found in the pluralistic mishmash of present day's architectural theories.

Abstract (sommario):
Le sujet de la thèse —la clarification du concept de plan libre dans l’œuvre architectural de Le Corbusier— s’inscrit dans un cadre général de recherches portant sur les modes de conception architecturale en contexte de modernité. Cette préoccupation prend comme horizon la compréhension des processus qui servent l’architecture comme construction d’idées et qui permettent d’en articuler les différentes phases, depuis l’amont des intentions exprimées par le concepteur, jusqu’à l’aval des expressions prises par la solution, en passant par les moyens qui, précisément, permettent d’articuler une pensée abstraite à un objet concret. C’est un champ d’interrogation qui s’appuie sur le constat d’un double déficit disciplinaire :l’intérêt général porté aux formes de l’architecture plutôt qu’aux processus qui les ont fait naître ;l’absence de vocabulaire réellement partagé des concepts utilisés par la discipline, ce qui forme, dans l’un et l’autre cas, “obstacles” à la connaissance de l’architecture et à son enseignement.

A cet égard, le concept de plan libre occupe une position de choix. Célèbre « mot-force » du manifeste corbuséen de 1927 —« Les Cinq points d’une nouvelle architecture »—, devenu un concept central —mais aussi “nomade”— de l’historiographie de l’architecture moderne, il se trouve donc à l’articulation des questions relatives à la modernité et à la conception. De plus, une simple confrontation de sa définition originale, tant à l’œuvre de Le Corbusier qu’à l’historiographie du Mouvement Moderne, révèle la polysémie du concept et, en particulier, les ambiguïtés et paradoxes que suscitent sa double interprétation :comme “modèle d’organisation spatiale” d’une part et comme “intention libératoire” de l’autre, au point qu’elle laisse le chercheur perplexe à l’égard de ce qu’en l’état, un tel concept peut bien apporter à la connaissance de l’architecture.

Pour surmonter ces difficultés d’interprétations, deux hypothèses sont proposées.

La première envisage le plan libre comme mode opératoire de “libre” conception propre à Le Corbusier. La seconde renvoie à la construction discursive du plan libre comme oxymore, c’est-à-dire comme figure de rhétorique qui, en associant deux termes de sens contraires, construit un ou plusieurs sens nouveaux.

En conclusion, leur vérification conduit à interpréter le plan libre comme mode spécifique de conception —qui assure tout autant l’autonomie du créateur que la fertilité du processus de création—, lui-même basé sur un processus récurrent de “mises en tension” et de recherches de nouveaux “équilibres” :du regard dialogique que Le Corbusier porte sur le monde —en particulier sur le processus de modernisation— à l’expression duale qu’il donne à ses compositions. Au final, cette double optique fonde notre interprétation du plan libre comme syncrétisme de la modernité corbuséenne. Elle se valide également comme clés de lecture particulièrement riches pour la compréhension de l’oeuvre corbuséenne et des processus de conception qui l’animent.

Développement

Tout au long des chapitres de l’étude, nous nous sommes attaché à interroger le concept de plan libre au-delà des compréhensions conventionnelles et “familières” qu’on pouvait en avoir de prime abord, à savoir :d’une part, le plan libre comme “modèle d’organisation spatiale” —défini par opposition au “plan paralysé”—et, d’autre part, le plan libre comme “intention libératoire”, lequel marque un large désir d’émancipation, en particulier —sans y être restreint— à l’égard des pratiques académiques. Dès le premier chapitre en effet, nous avions montré que ces premières définitions “communes” du plan libre —clairement identifiables tant dans l’œuvre corbuséenne que dans les instrumentalisations dont il fut l’objet par la critique spécialisée— formaient “obstacles”, dans ces deux champs, à une claire compréhension de ce qu’il pouvait signifier.

Bien que l’on ne puisse douter de la validité des définitions proposées par Le Corbusier lui-même, nous avons dû relever à leur égard un certain nombre d’ambiguïtés ou de contresens qui nous obligeaient à questionner ces termes au-delà de ce qu’on y voit habituellement. De la sorte, nous mettions aussi en évidence qu’il n’y avait pas, dans le concept de plan libre, un, mais bien deux “niveaux de libération” à identifier :d’une part, un mouvement d’émancipation de la nouvelle architecture à l’égard de tout ce qui pouvait, de manière hétéronome, “préformer” sa conception ;d’autre part, une liberté interne au système mis en place, assurant à l’auteur de projet la mise à disposition de moyens innovants et permettant la « permanente mise à l’épreuve » (A. Rivkin) de l’architecture face aux conditions changeantes du projet.

Ces différentes observations nous invitaient à approfondir la réflexion et, surtout, à la déplacer vers ce processus qui, justement, permettait de lier la “virtualité” de l’intention à la “matérialité” d’une solution, soit le propre de la conception architecturale. En effet, entre ces premières définitions du plan libre qui, déjà, le situaient aux “extrêmes” de la conception architecturale — intention versus expression— il semblait opportun d’en revenir là aussi à l’investigation de cette problématique “intermédiaire” :par quels moyens Le Corbusier passait-il du plan libre comme intention au plan libre comme expression ?

L’hypothèse fut alors posée de considérer le plan libre corbuséen comme “méta-opérateur” d’une libre conception du projet, le terme désignant selon Robert Prost « l’ensemble des modes opératoires que réclame toute formulation de solution ». Dans ce sens, on pouvait aisément présumer que ce mode de conception était lui-même animé par le regard doctrinal porté par Le Corbusier sur cette même modernité au service de laquelle il avait précisément défini la « nouvelle architecture » et les « Cinq points » qui en étaient « les moyens ».

L’objectif de nos développements ultérieurs fut dès lors, tout à la fois, de montrer ce “statut” opératoire du plan libre comme libre conception; de déterminer les moyens —procéduraux et substantiels— qui l’organisaient ;de montrer ce qu’ils construisaient dans l’œuvre en termes d’innovation ;de relever, en parallèle, en quoi et comment ils étaient révélateurs du point de vue de Le Corbusier sur la modernité.

Les hypothèses et l’intérêt des questions soulevées furent définitivement fondés après l’exposé des cadres généraux à l’intérieur desquels elles devaient être discutées :les champs de la conception d’une part et de la modernité de l’autre. C’est l’objet du chapitre 2.

L’étude s’est alors développée en quatre parties, basées sur des temporalités et/ou des corpus spécifiques et orientées vers des questions particulières.

Dans un premier temps —chapitre 3—, nous avons pris comme cadre d’interrogation l’exposition du Weissenhof à Stuttgart en 1927, moment de la publication du célèbre manifeste corbuséen des « Cinq points d’une nouvelle architecture » et lieu de la construction de ces maisons par lesquelles Le Corbusier exposa concrètement ses points de vue théoriques.

Le concept de plan libre y a été évalué à l’aune :des Cinq points dans le cadre desquels il a été énoncé; de l’ossature Dom-Ino qui en fonde l’émergence et la nature particulière; des maisons du Weissenhof qui en concrétisent la portée et les ambitions. Bien que cette matière ait déjà été abondamment retournée par les labours de la critique architecturale, un exposé exhaustif se devait d’être fait pour fonder notre propre compréhension des événements, construire nos propres observations et conclusions, eu égard à nos hypothèses. Par ailleurs, ce chapitre a permis d’éclaircir le mode de fonctionnement des Cinq points et de l’ossature Dom-Ino quant à leurs rôles et objectifs dans le processus de conception corbuséen.

Dans le 4e chapitre, nous nous sommes plus particulièrement interrogé sur ce qui fondait le choix et la définition de ces moyens particuliers. Il fut donc consacré à l’étude du plan libre comme édification d’une “théorie” du projet. Jamais Le Corbusier n’a produit un discours coordonné sur sa pratique —à la manière du traité d’Alberti— et les nombreux textes par lesquels il commente son œuvre et justifie les Cinq points comme « Eléments objectifs de discussion sur le phénomène architectural » présentent ces questions selon des points de vue fragmentaires :seul l’enchaînement des sources a permis d’extraire des thèmes dont la récurrence, voire la redondance, fait sens. La variation des énoncés des Cinq points que nous avons pu relever invitait par ailleurs à voir là une pensée en “construction” plutôt qu’une doctrine “arrêtée”, le manifeste étant dès lors compris comme un “arrêt sur images” ponctuant le parcours d’une pensée elle-même en permanente évolution.

Le corpus de cette analyse fut constitué de conférences, articles et livres rédigés par Le Corbusier, pour l’essentiel entre 1918 et la fin des années 20. Sur base de ce matériel, un certain nombre de thèmes récurrents ont été identifiés qui étayent la compréhension de ce que peuvent être les éléments de doctrine qui sous-tendent la conception du projet corbuséen et la manière dont il construit la validation de son propos. L’intérêt de cet examen fut aussi de permettre l’identification de quelques-unes de ces références procédurales qui font partie du fond culturel du concepteur et par lesquelles Le Corbusier organise ses processus de conception à l’égard de ce qui constitue l’architecture comme « problème en soi ». Dans un second temps, la comparaison de ces observations avec ce qui fait, selon Françoise Choay, théorie chez Alberti, a conforté l’idée de ce que cette construction doctrinale était propre à sous-tendre et qualifier un mode de conception et d’en confirmer, pour une part, les moyens de son ambition “émancipatrice”.

Dans le chapitre 5, nous avons procédé à l’examen de quatre références procédurales de conception que nous avions précédemment identifiées :la re-programmation, la dissociation, l’inversion et la réconciliation des contraires. L’intérêt était double. Il s’agissait, d’une part, de comprendre —et de vérifier— en quoi et comment ces procédures permettaient de rencontrer les objectifs d’une libre conception du projet —ce que nous avons traduit là par leur capacité à innover sur le plan formel et spatial et à assurer une relative autonomie du concepteur— et, d’autre part, de saisir —et montrer— en quoi et comment ils servaient le point de vue de Le Corbusier sur la modernité. Le corpus considéré ici était constitué d’une sélection de réalisations architecturales des années 20. Leur examen permit de saisir concrètement ce vers quoi les procédures conduisaient en examinant ce qu’elles construisaient dans l’œuvre. Bien que non exemptes d’observations personnelles, ces analyses se sont appuyées sur divers travaux antérieurs menés par les exégètes de l’œuvre corbuséenne dont, en particulier, Alan Colquhoun, Colin Rowe, Jacques Lucan, etc, auprès desquels nous avons trouvé matière à étayer nos hypothèses par l’articulation de leurs points de vue au nôtre, réduisant également quelques-unes des fractures de compréhension énoncées dès l’introduction.

Le chapitre 6 a, quant à lui, été plus particulièrement réservé à l’observation des références substantielles présentes dans le système de conception corbuséen au moment des Cinq points, que ce soit sur un plan concret ou à un horizon théorique. Dès l’exposé introductif de nos hypothèses, nous avions en effet relevé la relative incompatibilité que l’on pouvait discerner dans la mise au point d’un système de conception dont on attendait, d’un côté, qu’il puisse en permanence apporter des réponses innovantes en l’appuyant, de l’autre, sur des références de formes —celles des Cinq points— qui ne pouvaient qu’en restreindre l’ordre des possibilités. Deux discussions nous ont permis, sur le plan théorique au moins, de saisir les raisons de cette incompatibilité :celle de l’autoréférentialité du système d’une part et celle du miroir de l’inversion d’autre part, toutes deux conduisant nécessairement à restreindre le champ de la création à l’ordre d’une forme d’imitation.

Le chapitre 7, de conclusion, est revenu plus spécifiquement sur la discussion de l’objectif —et des conditions— dans lesquelles Le Corbusier poursuit cette volonté d’autonomie propre à la posture de l’artiste moderne, et l’objective. Si l’on s’accorde à reconnaître que le processus de modernisation à conduit à l’effritement des traditions stabilisatrices sur lesquelles se fondait ce qui faisait “sens commun”, la question est posée, entre autres, de savoir comment créer et objectiver ce “sens commun” à partir d’une vision subjective du “moi” créateur. La démonstration porte là sur la mise en exergue des invariants sur lesquels Le Corbusier fonde ses discours de validation :les principes pérennes qu’il “reconnaît” dans l’histoire, tout autant que les invariants de “l’homme”, qu’ils soient de nature socio-anthropologique, anthropomorphique ou psycho-physiologique. De la sorte, la posture émancipatrice de Le Corbusier se révèle fondée sur le respect d’un cadre normatif, intemporel, par lequel il tente d’objectiver sa propre subjectivité.

Cette approche duale nous est finalement apparue récurrente à tous niveaux de son processus de conception, et donc comme forgeant l’une de ses spécificités. Quel que soit le niveau auquel on l’envisage, Le Corbusier fonde son approche sur la mise en tension de termes, d’idées ou de figures qu’il oppose et entre lesquels il semble tout à la fois réfléchir, résoudre et exprimer les questions particulières de la conception, visant au final un nouvel équilibre entre les pôles identifiés, ce qu’énonce de manière métaphorique l’oxymore “plan libre”.

Abstract (sommario):
As our way of life becomes more mobile and dependant on our mobile technologies, many of our everyday experiences become electronically mediated. Concepts such as `home' and activities like shopping change as they are separated from their physical geographic locations, and the sprawling architecture of the cultural landscape strengthens this mutation of sense of place.The first part of this thesis explores the technologies and social conditions that have led to the nascence of mediated environments (i.e. the rise of the automobile and the Internet). The second part contains a case study that describes an acute example of this technologically-borne placelessness: recreational vehicle enthusiasts that travel the highways and camp in parking lots of `big box' stores, searching for the `American dream'. The final part of the thesis describes an architectural design project created to reconnect these people to each other and to the communities they wander through.

Abstract (sommario):
Research by design refers to the design of architectural research as an integral part of architectural design processes. In 1980s, it emerged as a third way in design research that was dominated until then by the methods of natural sciences and humanities. With this new formulation of design research, a methodological and epistemological transformation occurs, leading to the integration of practical knowledge into architectural research. The primary epistemological question transforms from knowing what design is and knowing how to design to knowing what through the act of design. The integration of the act of design in research transforms the status of design in design research from being an object of inquiry to being a research approach. In the literature on research by design, this transformation is often related with Donald Schö
n&rsquo
s conceptualization of &ldquo
reflective practice.&rdquo
The main discussion of reflective practice is primarily methodological rather than epistemological. Although it provides methodological insights, it is not sufficient to constitute an epistemological basis for research by design. Thus, the epistemological basis of research by design has not yet been adequately defined. In this study, the notion of &ldquo
reflective practice&rdquo
is investigated in a broader context relating it to its sources in the concepts of &ldquo
tacit knowledge&rdquo
and &ldquo
action research.&rdquo
A conceptual framework for research by design is constructed by relating these concepts with the discussions on research by design and with practical philosophy, the implications of which has remained rather uninvestigated in this context. Aristotle&rsquo
s elaboration of knowledge generation in action and the concept of phron&
#275
sis (practical knowledge, prudence, or practical wisdom) constitute the underpinning of this conceptual framework. The conceptual framework that is constructed on the basis of the key concepts in practical philosophy is discussed in the context of architectural design education. When architectural design education is formulated as a process of research by design within this framework, knowledge generated in the educational design processes promises not only to improve the particular educational context and architectural education but eventually to contribute to architectural knowledge.

Testo completo
Abstract (sommario):
Original contribution. A discussion of Carlo Lodoli's bi-fold understanding of indole (inherent nature); with respect to both meaning in architecture and the education of architects.
Carlo Lodoli (1690--1761) exists as a footnote in most major history books of modern architecture. He is typically noted for either his influence on the Venetian Neoclassical tradition or as an early prophet to some sort of functionalism. Though I would not argue his influence, I doubt his role in the development of a structurally determined functionalism. The issue of influence is always present as very little of his writings have survived and his built work amounts to a few windowsills. He did, however, teach architecture. I propose to explore the pedagogic potential of Lodoli's lessons of architecture.
Lodoli's teaching approach was not necessarily professional in that he did not instruct his students in the methods of drawing or construction techniques. Rather, his approach was dialogical. The topics were sweeping, often ethical, and ranged from the nature of truth to the nature of materials. Existing scholarship pertaining to Lodoli most often focuses upon his students' production of texts, projects, and projections. Andrea Memmo's Elementi dell'Architettura Lodoliana (1786, 1833) and Francesco Algarotti's Saggio sopra l'architettura (1756) are both specifically named by the respective authors as advancing Lodoli's architectural theories. Often overlooked are the apologues, or fables, used by Lodoli in lessons to his students. The main source for these fables is the Apologhi Immaginati (1787). Others were included in Memmo's Elementi. Apologues from both sources have been translated for the first time into English and can be found in Appendix I of the dissertation.
I look specifically to these stories to understand and illustrate Lodoli's approach to making, teaching and thinking. This is understood through Lodoli's characterisation of the identity of materials and of the self. Within this dissertation I intend to flesh out the textual and architectural fabric surrounding the pedagogic activities of the Venetian Friar known as the Socrates of Architecture, Carlo Lodoli.

Abstract (sommario):
Cette dissertation explore le role de l'architecture en tant que langage expressif, a travers la theorie de caractere en France a la fin du dix-huitieme siecle. Depuis l'Antiquite, Vitruve avait etabli le role expressif de l'architecture dans sa definition du terme "decorum". Pour Vitruve, toutefois, l'architecture exprimait un ordre qui transcendait sa materialite, l'ordre de l'univers.
Vers la fin du dix-septieme siecle, des changements culturels importants transformerent la nature meme de l'architecture. Le questionnement des fondations naturelles de l'architecture plongea la discipline dans une crise potentielle de la signification architecturale. Les architectes du dix-huitieme siecle commencerent a explorer le pouvoir expressif de l'architecture en tant que produit d'une imagination personnelle et specifique au contexte culturel, et essayerent de preserver sa signification de facon a ce que l'architecture demeure un langage commun.
L'architecte francais et theoricien Nicolas Le Camus de Mezieres (1721--ca.1793) developpa une theorie de l'architecture suivant laquelle le caractere d'un batiment se devait d'exprimer sa destination ou le statu social du client pour lequel il etait construit. Contrairement aux theories de caractere precedentes en architecture, celle de Le Camus etait basee de facon explicite sur une analogie entre l'architecture et le theatre: le mode d'expression en architecture suivait une progression temporelle typique du deroulement dramatique dans une piece de theatre; l'augmentation graduelle de l'ornementation des portes et des seuils successifs rappelait la succession des decors dans une performance de theatre. Cette etude examine les theories d'expression au theatre qui influencerent de facon explicite les theorie architecturales de Le Camus, telles que la mise en scene et le jeu des acteurs. Une etude plus poussee du role social et politique du theatre dans sa forme construite met en evidence l'innovation architecturale de l'oeuvre batie de Le Camus.
Alors que les etudes precedentes sur Le Camus de Mezieres mettent l'emphase sur son plus important traite architectural, Le genie de l'architecture, ou l'analogie de cet art avec nos sensations, cette dissertation analyse egalement le vaste repertoire des oeuvres ecrites de Le Camus, incluant ses pieces de theatre, son roman, et une description d'un jardin pittoresque. Ces ouvrages revelent l'objectif reel qui sous-tend la theorie architecturale de Le Camus: la volonte d'exprimer la tension erotique d'une architecture des sens.

Abstract (sommario):
With the rising influence of digitalization and its immense penetration intoeven everyday life, the last decade of the 20th Century addressed to a critical threshold in the successive transformation process of the spatiality in its long-term run. The advanced digital technologies of ubiquitous computing and generative design, as well as the invention of smart materials in late 90’s (particularly the nano-technological materials that emerged as the programmable matters with their ability to evolve continously) have all provoked the fluid characteristics of spatiality, and strengthen the transformative capacities of the architectural space through the emergence of computer-augmented territories. Additionally, while they are becoming as the body extensions, the advent of novel apparatuses and gadgets further enhanced the inte- gration of the corporal and incorporal bodies with the spatio-temporal multiplicities, where the hyperdimensionality of the space has been triggered to its outmost range, in relation to the “soft and smart technologically augmented immanent millieu”, in Spuybroek terms. Thus, like Spuybroek points out as the “haptonomist” presence of the body merges itself with these diverse bodily extensions on one hand; and on the other hand, as the rising influence of nomadic view of the world further stimulates the unboundedness and endless fluidity of space, so that the spatiality becomes a landscape of successive transformations, a topology of emergence or a plane of becoming, which is merely defined by lines of forces, and occures as an alive territory rather than a limited space of predefined boarders. Therefore, this evolvable territory which is affectable and being affected by the lines of forces –inner and outer forces–, emerges as an animated existence, an interactive organism. So, by interacting with the Deleuzian Philosophy and their notions like lines of forces, folding, becoming, smooth space, territory, spatium, this article aims to reveal the relevance of these notions in architectural discourse, as well as the emergence of the smooth space in the contemporary architectural practice, by magnifiying one of the very initial examples of its kind; in terms of unfolding the Fresh Water Pavilion of NOX Architecture by Lars Spuybroek into question to reveal the essences of thecontemporary transformable-evolvable architectural spatiality.

Abstract (sommario):
Dans cette thèse, nous nous intéressons aux relations spécifiques entre l’architecture et la philosophie dans une période bien précise de l’histoire de l’architecture. Notre recherche consiste en une analyse approfondie du processus de la conception architecturale approchée à partir de la philosophie de la déconstruction. Il ne s’agit pas d’aborder de façon générale le domaine trop vaste des emprunts que les architectes peuvent faire à la philosophie, mais bien de se limiter à une entrée beaucoup plus précise, en partant d’une interrogation portant sur les relations que les architectes dits «déconstructivistes» entretiennent avec un courant de la philosophie connu, depuis les écrits du philosophe français Jacques Derrida, sous cette même appellation de «philosophie de la déconstruction». L’enjeu est d’étudier le processus de conception architecturale, son passage par des concepts et son aboutissement dans des formes, en le référant à la philosophie et en se demandant en particulier comment les architectes utilisent des références philosophiques. Pour arriver à une assimilation plus rigoureuse de la pensée déconstructive en architecture, l’architecte American : Peter Eisenman a proposé une interprétation du processus de conception architecturale proche de la logique textuelle. Ce processus s’appellera chez Eisenman la «décomposition». Notre problématique majeure sera d’essayer de comprendre quels outils à la fois théoriques et pratiques utilisent les architectes contemporaines afin de restructurer une conception architecturale influencée par la pensée déconstructive ? Le but était d’arriver à donner à la déconstruction en architecture un aspect et une définition précis, au-delà loin des seules images métaphoriques que certains architectes peuvent proposer de cette notion. De là dépendait le choix des œuvres analysées comme exemples de ce mouvement, mais aussi l’élucidation que nous tentions du processus de conception architecturale issu de cette notion de déconstruction. Notre but était de parvenir à donner une figure esthétique, théorique, fonctionnelle et opérationnelle à un mouvement architectural. Nous avons construit notre projet de recherche autour de quatre problématiques et hypothèses majeures qui résument de façon générale le chemin parcouru. La première interrogation vise l’origine de ce mouvement, dans la mesure où il est au croisement de ses deux disciplines divers, la philosophie et l’architecture. Est-il possible que ce mouvement soit le fruit d’une transformation philosophique en architecture, détaché de toute théorie architecturale antérieure ? Ou bien n’est-il que le développement d’une ou plusieurs idéologies antérieures en architecture ? Notre deuxième interrogation est orientée vers une compréhension de la source philosophique – les écrits de Jacques Derrida – et le processus d’une critique de la métaphysique chez le philosophe. Qu’est-ce que la déconstruction? La troisième interrogation vise une analyse concrète entre les données philosophiques et les œuvres architecturales. Comment l’architecture, art de construction par excellence, peut-elle devenir une déconstruction d’elle-même ? Dans quelle (s) limite (s) est-il possible de réduire la déconstruction à des connaissances définissables, comme semble malgré tout l’exiger l’architecture ? Ainsi, la dernière interrogation principale de notre projet vise l’impacte de ce mouvement sur l’architecture en globale et l’architecture contemporaine
In this thesis, we focus on the specific relationship between architecture and philosophy in a specific period in the history of architecture. Although our research analyzes the process of architectural design through the philosophy of deconstruction, it does not generally address too broad field of philosophy. In fact, the project undermines the effects of the philosophical method of deconstruction on architecture and the so-called deconstructivists' concern with "philosophy of deconstruction" known from the writings of the French philosopher Jacques Derrida. In other words, the challenge is to study the process of architectural design, its association with concepts and its effect on forms, by referring to philosophy and in particular by claiming how architects use the philosophical references. To achieve a more precise assimilation of deconstructive thought in architecture, American architect Peter Eisenman proposed an interpretation of the architectural design process close to the textual logic. For Eisenman, this process is called "decomposition". Our major issue is to try to understand what theoretical tools and practices are used at the same time by the contemporary architects to restructure an architectural design influenced by the deconstructive thought. The aim is to give the deconstruction in architecture, a specific dimension and precise definition, far beyond the few metaphorical images that may offer some architects of thisconcept. Although we require analyzable projects to achieve a clear-cut definition, we have tried to elucidate the architectural design process resulting from the notion of deconstruction. Our goal is to achieve an operational, functional, theoretical and anaesthetic figure in an architectural movement. We have carried out our research project around four major issues and assumptions that generally summarize achieved progress. The first question examines the origin of this movement, in so far as it is at the crossroads of two different disciplines, philosophy and architecture. Is this architectural movement theresult of a philosophical transformation in architecture apart from any previous ideologies in architecture or is it the product of the development of one or more ideologies ? Our second question is directed towards an understanding of the philosophical source in the writings of Jacques Derrida and the process of critique of metaphysics for him. What is deconstruction ? The third question is about the concrete analysis between philosophical data and architectural works. How architecture, art of construction by excellence, become a deconstruction itself ? To what extent is it possible to reduce the deconstruction to a definable knowledge that the architecture can use it ? Thus, the last main question of our project highlights the impact of this movement on architecture in global and contemporary architecture

Abstract (sommario):
La recherche tente d'assembler divers fragments de différentes branches mathématiques en un seul corps du savoir mathématique qui est pertinente d'un point de vue de la conception architecturale, comprise dans huit chapitres. Le premier chapitre traite principalement les conséquences philosophiques de cette prise de position entre l'architecture et les mathématiques; expliquant le contexte de leur relation et éclairer la nature esthétique de la recherche. Dans le chapitre deux, nous essayons de préparer la fondation pour les constructions mathématiques, à savoir examiner la relation entre la géométrie et de la perception. Nous expliquons aussi la différence entre les espaces formels et physiques, et nous définissons formellement les notions de base de la spatialité en utilisant la topologie et enfin nous construisons le principal objet géométrique de la recherche, qui est la variété différentiable (en particulier à deux dimensions à savoir la surface). La logique de structuration des constructions mathématiques dans la recherche provient essentiellement de l'approche intuitive de la conception architecturale de définir d'abord une forme de base, puis appliquer des modifications. Par conséquent, nous avons deux parties générales des constructions mathématiques la première est la définition des formes et la deuxième partie est les opérations sur les formes. Dans le chapitre trois, nous donnons une explication de la différence entre nos deux types principaux de définitions de formes à savoir la définition paramétrique et la définition algébrique. Dans le chapitre quatre, nous donnons une explication sur les deux principales techniques de définitions de forme utilisés par les logiciels de CAO à savoir les meshes et les splines (en particulier les NURBS). Ceci est couplé avec une réflexion philosophique sur l'utilisation de logiciels de CAO et de sa relation à la connaissance géométrique, et sur une perspective plus large, la relation entre cette recherche et l'architecture numérique. Dans les trois chapitres suivants, nous définissons trois types d'opérations différentes qui peuvent être appliquées à des formes que nous avons définies, à savoir les opérations algébriques, analytiques et algorithmiques. Comme il ressort de leurs noms, ces opérations correspondent aux différentes branches de la géométrie: la géométrie affine (en particulier euclidienne) et la géométrie projective, puis la géométrie différentielle et enfin la géométrie combinatoire et computationnelle. Dans le chapitre cinq, l'accent est sur les opérations algébriques, nous commençons par expliquer les différents espaces en question et de passer ensuite la notion de la symétrie par lesquels ces différents types de géométrie sont constitués une dans l'autre (cf. programme d'Erlangen). Dans le chapitre six, nous nous concentrons sur la géométrie différentielle (en particulier des courbes et surfaces), avec une variété de résultats analytiques qui permet un large éventail d'outils et techniques de conception. Tous ces résultats sont couplés avec des exemples des conceptions architecturales élaborées à l'aide de ces calculs. Dans le chapitre sept nous déplaçons vers des opérations algorithmiques, qui sont divisés en deux parties: la première partie traite de géométrie combinatoire et computationnelle et la seconde porte sur les méthodes d'optimisation tels que les algorithmes génétiques. Nous concluons finalement la recherche au chapitre huit, dans lequel nous revenons une fois de plus à nos réflexions philosophiques. Nous prenons trois grandes idéologies en architecture à savoir, le fonctionnalisme, la sémiotique et la phénoménologie et essayer de voir comment cette recherche se rapporte aux leurs points de vue

Abstract (sommario):
Dans l’historiographie contemporaine, le déconstructivisme constitue un moment significatif d’une expression négative de la forme. En effet, la morphologie architecturale met en vue une recomposition à partir d’une décomposition : elle affirme et présente un processus de négation. Comment comprendre ces formes architecturales paradoxales qui expriment leur propre abolition et quelles sont les différentes manifestations de cette négativité morphologique dans l’architecture contemporaine ? En effet, bien que se défendant de toute attention à la forme, les architectures qualifiées de non-rhétoriques par l’historien J. Lucan (A. Lacaton & J.-P. Vassal, OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen etc.), en cherchant précisément à faire disparaître toute expressivité morphologique, ne participent-elles pas d’une même visée que le déconstructivisme, lequel opère ce retrait de la forme de manière explicite ?Une première partie de cette recherche se propose d’explorer différentes approches d’architectes et de philosophes qui ont consacré une partie ou l’ensemble de leurs travaux à l’imagination et à la poïétique des formes : J. Lucan, D. Guibert, D. Raynaud, E. Cassirer, G. Bachelard, G. Durand. Dans une deuxième partie, dans le sillage de l’œuvre d’H. Maldiney qui établit un parallèle entre Art et existence, j’inscris ma recherche dans une herméneutique existentielle de ces formes négatives que j’ai nommées : antéformes. Mon hypothèse s’attache à proposer qu’au fondement négatif de notre rapport au monde répond une mise en forme négative des morphologies architecturales. En attaquant leur propre forme, c’est-à-dire le sens de la mise en forme proprement dite, les antéformes posent la question de ce qui fonde leur existence et y répondent en projetant dans l’objet une manière de se rapporter au monde. Certains concepteurs contemporains donnent à voir en partie et projettent à leur insu leur propre expérience vécue et désirante de la quête cherchante de forme qui les habite lors de la conception. Dans cette recherche, je suggère ainsi d’établir une analogie entre l’état poïétique et l’expression d’une forme négativée de l’œuvre. En outre, je m’emploie à repérer, proposer et articuler dans une architectonique des antéformes, différentes modalités de néantisation de la forme architecturale pouvant correspondre à des styles ou orientations de la présence proposés par le philosophe. Je développe ainsi des schèmes stylistiques fondés sur des tendances pulsionnelles ou qualités énergétiques tensives. Enfin, je propose que les antéformes expriment un ça-voir poïétique de la crise qui les fondent, les émotivent, et témoignent de cette épreuve surmontée. Il s’agit ici de réactiver la double implication originaire du verbe poïen : à la fois accomplissement et novation. Tout travail poïétique, en tant qu’il demeure porté par une exigence de singularité, implique l’imprévisibilité de l’objet qui émergera de son processus de conception. Les antéformes sont un appel à concevoir au sens plein du terme tout autant qu’un appel à un rapport propre (authentique) à l’existence ; lequel s’envisage, non comme un Moi ou un cogito qui se pose, mais comme le processus d’individuation d’un Soi. Celui-ci ne peut exister sans un travail incessant de désindividuation préalable dont les antéformes sont le témoignage. L’acte poïétique invite, non à choisir parmi des possibles préalables, mais précisément à engendrer sa propre forme d’être au monde
In contemporary historiography, deconstructivism is a significant moment in a negative expression of form. Indeed, architectural morphology puts forward a recomposition from a decomposition: it affirms and presents a process of negation. How can we understand these paradoxical architectural forms that express their own destruction? What are the different manifestations of this morphological negativity in contemporary architecture? Although defending themselves from any attention to forms, architectures described as non-rhetorical by the historian J. Lucan (A. Lacaton - J.-P. Vassal, OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen, etc.), by seeking precisely to remove all morphological expressiveness, would they not participate, like deconstructivism, which removes forms explicitly? First, we explore different approaches of architects and philosophers, such as J. Lucan, D. Guibert, D. Raynaud, E. Cassirer, G. Bachelard, G. Durand, who devoted some or all of their work to the imagination and the poïetics. Second, in the spirit of H. Maldiney, which draws a parallel between Art and existence, I build my work on the existential hermeneutics of these negative forms, which I have named: antéformes. My hypothesis is that the negative basis of our relationship to the world responds to a negative shaping of architectural morphologies. By attacking their own form, that is to say the manner in which they are shaped, the antéformes question their own existence and respond to it by projecting into the object a way of relating to the world. Some contemporary designers partially reveal and project their own experience of searching for the form, that drives them during conception.In this research, I suggest an analogy between the poietic state and the expression of a negative form of the work. Besides, I work to identify, propose and articulate in an architectonic of the antéformes, different aspects of the nothingness of the architectural form that may correspond to styles or orientations of presence proposed by philosophers. I thus develop stylistic schemes based on drive tendencies or tensile energy qualities. Finally, I propose that the antéformes express a poietic sense of crisis that melts them, emotes them, and testifies to this experience.The aim here is to reactivate the dual implication originating from the poien verb : at once accomplishment and novation. Any poetic work, as it remains driven by a requirement of singularity, implies the unpredictability of the object that will emerge from its design process. The antéformes are a call to conceive in the full sense of the word as well as a call for a proper (authentic) relationship to existence; which sees itself, not as the emerge of the self or cogito, but as the process of individuation of a Self. This one can not exist without an incessant work of preliminary désindividuation for which antéformes are the testimony. The poietic act invites, not to choose among possible prerequisites, but precisely to generate its own form of being in the world

Abstract (sommario):
This thesis aims to reveal paradigms associated with the operation of Western architectural oligarchies. The research is an examination into "how" dominant architectural institutions and their figureheads are undermined through the subversive collaboration of younger, unrecognised architects. By appropriating theories found in Jacques Derrida's writings in philosophy, the thesis interprets the evolution of post World War II polemical architectural thinking as a series of political friendships. In order to provide evidence, the thesis involves the rewriting of a portion of modern architectural history, 1949-1987. Modern architectural history is rewritten as a series of three friendship partnerships which have been selected because of their subversive reaction to their respective establishments. They are English architects, Alison Smithson and Peter Smithson; South African born architect and planner, Denise Scott Brown and North American architect, Robert Venturi; and Greek architect, Elia Zenghelis and Dutch architect, Rem Koolhaas. Crucial to the undermining of their respective enemies is the friends' collaboration on subversive projects. These projects are built, unbuilt and literary. Warring publicly through the writing of seminal texts is a significant step towards undermining the dominance of their ideological opponents. It also appears that through the making of these projects, the unrecognised architects are able to convert themselves to being recognised as new figureheads. This thesis contends that as a consequence of the power within each of the three friendship partnerships, the architects are enabled to collaborate against the dominant ideology of their respective enemies and gain status. It also contends that a cycle of friendship and warring is the political system by which the institution of modern architecture has historically reengineered itself to suit the times.

Detta kandidatarbete uppmanar till att upplysa andra kreatörer om normkreativitet inom skräckgenren. Denna genre har kommit att bli ständigt upprepande när det kommer till vissa skräckelement. Genom att arbeta kring den arkitektoniska atmosfären som huvudingång till att skapa nya koncept i skräckgenren, har vi därmed utvecklat ett digitalt spel som testar att ta bort antagonisten ur spelet och enbart baserar skräcken på atmosfären. Metoderna som använts för att utföra och inspirera gestaltningen har varit en visuell spelanalys, “The 4-layers approach” och modulär level-design. Resultatet av vårt digitala spel berodde helt på om spelaren skapade en tanke av att en antagonist existerade medan i vårt fall var fienden egentligen bara den arkitektoniska atmosfären. Den svåraste biten med detta kandidatarbete var att skräck är en sådan subjektiv genre och spelarna kommer att reagera olika, om ens alls.
This bachelor thesis aims to encourage other creators in norm creativity within the horror genre. This genre has become ever-repeated when it comes to certain horror elements. By working around the architectural atmosphere as the main entrance to create new concepts in the horror genre, we have developed a digital game that tries to remove the antagonist from the game and only bases the horror on the atmosphere. The methods used to execute and inspire the design have been a visual game analysis, "The 4-layers approach" and modular level design. The result of our digital game was entirely due to the fact that the player created a thought that an antagonist existed while in our case the enemy was only the architectural atmosphere. The hardest part of this bachelor thesis was that horror is such a subjective genre and the players will react differently, if at all.

Abstract (sommario):
In conservation of culturally significant architecture (CSA), awareness about problems of temporality and their consideration has been frequently approached with different perspectives. However, these partial explanations have usually focused on accounts of temporality that mainly approach the past and the present, and more rarely the future, but do not consider the complete spectrum of human temporality, nor explicit ontological bases. In this thesis, architecture emerges as a manifold being in constant becoming that compels human being to exercise permanently memory and assimilation. The main contribution is the proposal of an existential approach towards conservation as an intentionality grounded on the more fundamental attitudes of cultivation and care. Through epistemological and phenomenological analysis of Brandi’s thought – focusing on his paradigmatic Theory of Restoration – his attitude comes forth as a particular form of conservation intentionality limited to architecture as a work of art. Following mainly Ingarden and Ricoeur, the results of ontological and phenomenological investigations about architecture and temporality demonstrate conservation in its modern form as a limited temporal intentionality. After these theoretical pre-conditions, the existential approach applied on the previously deduced dimensions of the space and time of Dasein – in Heidegger’s terms – proved the grounding of conservation on an existential interpretation of the more fundamental notions of cultivation and care. Making an analogy with Ingarden’s notion of the architectural work of art, CSA is ontologically analysed emerging to consciousness as a manifold being that can be concretized in different ways according with the attitude of the receptor. After the phenomenological analysis of memory, architectural conservation in its modern form is demonstrated as a partial account of human temporality that can be overcome considering human inhabitation in a creative way. Partially supported on the obtained cases of remembered architecture, the hermeneutical approach concluded suggesting a solution for the impasse with an existential account of both, the artistic grounding of architecture and its characterisation as the place that temporally accompanies Dasein. Thus, architecture is ontologically demonstrated to have a manifold being in constant state of transformation that participates of an unavoidable humanised temporality, appearing as a less ambiguous object of conservation. Hence, architecture is existentially demonstrated as constituting the space for the authentically concerned human, whose temporal consciousness compels to cultivate and care about, enriching the possible approaches to conservation as a collective endeavour.

Abstract (sommario):
Cette thèse a pour contexte scientifique : l'architecturologie (P. Boudon, sur l'espace architectural, 1971) et l'anthropologie (G. Durand, les structures anthropologiques de l'imaginaire, 1960). Méthodologiquement, elle suppose une analyse comparée intraculturelle et interculturelle. La seconde, inspire des travaux de G. P. Murdock, a été conduite sur un échantillonnage de 300 items divergents, tant sur le plan géographique qu'historique. L'application de cette méthode a permis de mettre en évidence une série d'isomorphismes (i. E. Réseaux sémantiques) centres sur des schèmes. Une définition extensive du schème (non-substantif et dynamique) a été envisagée du point de vue transdisciplinaire. Les difficultés de construction de l'éthogramme (répertoire comportemental spécifique) ont conduit à une analyse parasynonymique du lexique des actions. Selon cette méthode, l'éthogramme se compose d'une soixantaine de schèmes. Quatre variables descriptives ont été mises à jour : nombre d'actants, distance interactantielle, dimension, symétrie. L'examen détaille des relations entre champs schématique et imaginaire permet de définir l'image comme produit d'une valorisation et d'une actualisation du schème
This thesis is set in the twofold context of architecturology (P. Boudon, sur l'espace architectural, 1971) and anthropology (G. Durand, les structures anthropologiques de l'imaginaire, 1960). From a methodological point of view, it supposes both intracultural and crosscultural analyses. The second one, in the line of G. P. Murdock 's works, was carried out on a sample of 300 items, divergent as much on geographical as on historical levels. This method applying points out a group of isomorphisms (i. E. Semantic networks) centered on schemes. An extensive definition of the scheme (unsubstantive, dynamic) was considered according to a transdisciplinary point of view. The difficulties about an athogram construction have led to a parasynonymic analysis of action verbs. By this way, the ethogram could be defined by some sixty schemes. Then, four descriptive variable were pointed out : the number of actants, interactantial distance, demension, symmetry. The precise survey of the relations between schematic and inagination fiels allows for a definition of the image as the product of valorization and actualization of a scheme

Abstract (sommario):

Dealing properly with electronics will be a strongcompetitive advantage in the automotive sector in the nearfuture. Electronics are driving current innovations but are atthe same time becoming a larger part of the cost of thevehicle. In order to be successful, innovations must beintroduced in the vehicle without compromising the final pricetag. Also, the electronics have to compete with, and win over,the dependability of well known and proven mechanicalsolutions.

A problem with automotive electronics is that the approachwithin industry is to manage electronics in the same way asmechanical components with well defined boundaries andproperties. With the freedom introduced by software new ways tomanage the design process are necessary, components mayinteract differently depending on the context and have hiddenbehavior exposed only at rare occasions. The system design mustbe performed more explicitly; it is not enough to rely on welldefined boundaries and interfaces. The content and behavior ofinteracting components must be designed, analyzed and verifiedin the design process.

For future success, by-wire systems must handle theintegration of internal systems with a high degree ofcomplexity and increased dependencies between parts. This mustbe performed in line with a stronger agenda of cost anddependability, where the dependability of internal integrationshould focus on safety, reliability and maintainability. Thisthesis provides a comprehensive background on this topicthrough the first two appended reports.

As a support for new ways to deal with system design theMonty model for system engineering is proposed in the thirdappended report. The Monty model structures the need formodeling efforts in a general systems framework and alsoindicates related activities in the design process.

Modeling is a supporting technique that should improvecost-efficient dependability, but the modeling must beaccompanied by an extended reuse of designs. Modeling can beapplied formally or tacitly. In order to support modeling anddesign of either type the Monty model can be used. The Montymodel underlines the types of models necessary at differentdesign stages and suggests a way to separate design stages inthe design process. At every stage, it is necessary to havelinked models of the function, the implementation and theenvironment of the system. Related activities to manage thiswork are also necessary.

In future work, building on the ideas of the Monty model,the goal is to find a structured approach to master the art ofsystem design and improve the engineering of dependable andcost efficient drive-bywire architectures.

Abstract (sommario):
This thesis concerns the various concepts of rights and philosophical accounts of them. Chapter 1 addresses some methodological issues affecting analytic legal philosophy and the philosophy of rights. Chapter 2 distinguishes between two kinds of philosophical accounts of rights: models and theories. Models outline the 'conceptually basic' types of rights, their differences, and their relationships with other kinds of 'normative positions' (e.g., duties, liabilities, etc.). Theories of rights serve two roles: first, to posit a supposed ultimate purpose for all rights; second, to provide criteria for determining what counts as 'a right' in the first place. The chapter also criticises both monistic models (ones positing only a single basic kind) for being under-inclusive and a subset of pluralistic ones (those positing several basic kinds) as over-inclusive. Chapter 3 clarifies the concepts of rights exercise, enforcement, remedying, and vindication. Chapter 4 explains the Interest-Will Theories of rights debate, while Chapter 5 argues that its constituents are irredeemably flawed, unnecessary, and under-inclusive. Chapter 6 further analyses the concept of rights enforceability, showing why legal rights are not invariably enforceable by legal powers. It then explains why wholly unenforceable legal rights nonetheless constitute 'imperfect' or defective cases. Chapter 7 argues there are more ways to enforce legal rights than just via powers, elucidating two such modes: legal rights can generally be claimed or invoked using legal liberties in private and social circumstances. While Chapter 8 shows why it might not always be possible to make liberty-based claims or invocations of right, it also provides reasons for thinking that legal rights that cannot be enforced in these ways are also imperfect.

Abstract (sommario):
Thesis (Ph.D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture and Planning, February 1999.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 217-218).
This thesis explores the deep spatio-linguistic relationship between the Austrian born philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein's practices of philosophy and of architecture. Wittgenstein's philosophy of language is notable for its sharply distinguished early and late work: with the early work most strongly associated with his Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (1922) and the later frequently designated by his posthumously published Philosophical Investigations (1953). Following the completion of the early work Wittgenstein abandoned philosophy for a period of ten years, spending the years from 1926 to 1929 engaged in the design and construction of a house in Vienna for his sister Margarethe Stonborough. The thesis considers the ways in which the intervening practice of architecture infiltrated, altered, influenced and manifested itself in the later philosophy by focusing on the spatial. temporal. conceptual and cognitive gaps in the philosophy. The importance and the prevalence of the practice of architecture for Wittgenstein's later philosophy are exhibited in a variety of ways that together broaden, reconceive and resituate the functioning of language and philosophy. The thesis considers these developments in the philosophy as they are revealed in the visual and spatial language, thinking and construction of the philosophical texts. This analysis reveals a shift from the removed, idealized and flattened picture theory of the Tractatus to the production of the spatially complex and ambiguous images of entanglement in the Investigations. The Stonborough house, itself, is analyzed through its production of cognitive and spatial practices and problematics. Wittgenstein's practice of architecture is shown to utilize. develop, challenge and reveal related spatial concepts found in the philosophy. These include the ideas of limits, boundaries, inner/outer dichotomies, the relationship between showing and saying, the idea of correspondence and the practices of representation, assembly. resemblance, construction, building and rearrangement.

Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 2007.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 86-93).
This thesis explores Mies van der Rohe's Barcelona Pavilion through the lens of Nelson Goodman's philosophical categories of the autographic and the allographic in order to determine what constitutes the building's identity. The Pavilion was originally designed as a temporary structure for the 1929 International Exposition in Barcelona and rebuilt in 1986 as a permanent building. The reconstruction of this iconic building provokes a complex questioning about the identity of the Barcelona Pavilion in particular and of any architectural work in general. Goodman's notions are unique criteria to deal with issues of identity and authenticity in architecture. The autographic identifies a category of works that cannot be replicated, i.e., every difference between a work and even its closest copy makes a difference to the work's identity. In contrast, the allographic identifies a category of works that can be replicated, i.e., the difference between an original and its duplication is irrelevant to the work's identity. By examining the Barcelona Pavilion through the lens of these notions, this thesis shows that Mies's building is a hybrid case in which the autographic and the allographic criteria are inextricably linked.
(cont.) To consider the 1986 Pavilion simply as a copy does not completely define its identity status; conversely, to conclude that they are two instances of the same work or that they are two different buildings is not accurate, either. This case illustrates the complexity that arises when trying to establish what constitutes the identity of an architectural work in general and, at the same time, allows us to reconsider Goodman's statements regarding architecture.

Abstract (sommario):
Architecture has always been associated with the qualities of permanence and timelessness. The thesis investigates the notions of temporality and permanence in relation to the built environment. It recognizes that in the ever changing dynamic flux of the built environment, there is an architectural paradigm which is as important as the imagined timeless structures that constitute the architectural discourse.First, the notions of permanence are discussed. It is pointed out that what is considered to be permanent in architecture is, in fact, the `image' of the building, and not the actual structure as it constantly changing, deteriorating, and undergoing metamorphosis with time. The second part deals with the constructs of time and space through history; resultant architectural theories and its effects on the built environment.An attempt to understand the history of temporary architectures is made in the third part. Further analysis draws on the understanding of the difference in the western and the eastern perspective on temporary architecture. In the fourth part it is argued that there are alternative ways of looking at temporary architectures that need to be addressed. One of the ways of looking at them is how they affect the urban and the public realm.The fifth part of the thesis, discusses the various meanings of urban space and the formation of the public realm. The contrasting examples of the transforming urban space in Ahmadabad, India and San Francisco, USA give an insight of the ways temporary architectures can assist in the ever changing urban environment.The sixth part proposes a diagram of taxonomical organization through which temporary architecture(s) can be better understood; namely as `temporary structures',' temporary spaces', `temporary uses/users' and the resulting `temporary urbanisms.'The concluding chapter finally discusses the importance of recognizing this void in our understanding of temporary architecture; as also realizing their importance in creation of a successful urban realm.
